Notes

The HUD presents no visual indication of Pay Back being active. Damage done to enemies will confirm its effects.

Pay Back increases damage for most of Brick's weapon attacks, as well as for melee attacks made while Berserk. However, it does not increase damage for melee attacks made while not Berserk, nor does it increase the damage of rocket launchers.

Similar to other shield skills such as Unbreakable, Pay Back will not trigger a second time until Brick's shields recharge fully.

Unbreakable works well with Payback, as it quickly charges Brick's shield bar up to capacity allowing Payback to trigger again.
